Answer:

A. Determiner

Explanation:

To answer this question we need to understand what determiner is.

A determiner is a word that introduces a noun. It always comes before a noun, not after; it can come before an adjective used to describe the noun.

<u>There are 4 main types of determiners: articles, demonstratives, quantifiers, and possessives.</u>

<u>A</u> cat is a good pet - <u>determiner-article</u>

<u>These</u> black raspberries are sour - <u>determiner-demonstrative</u>

He ate <u>all</u> the cookies - <u>determiner-quantifier</u>

It's <u>our</u> secret recipe - <u>determiner-possessive</u>

As for our sentence - <em>These bagels are stale</em> - the word <u>'these' </u>is a determiner (demonstrative pronoun).

Demonstrative pronouns are also used as determiners in English. There are four of them: this, that, these and those. Demonstratives are used in a situation in which the speaker can point to the item they mean, making them even more specific than a definite article.

To sum up, the word <u>'these'</u> is a demonstrative pronoun and we can think option B is correct as it is a pronoun; but exactly in this sentence, <u>it is a pronoun that plays a role of a determiner. </u>

I hope it helped you :)

  • An American Realist

American Realism is a genre of writing that depicts life evens exactly as they are. The author uses very vivid pictures to illustrate events.

It is different from American Romanticism that clouds the true nature of events and focuses on mysteries. Romanticism also focuses on imagination and sensation.

The use of adjectives like pale, a sky that was faint, etc, paints events as they really are.
